Safety & Disclaimer

Each year, members are required to apply for or renew membership, pay the annual subscription and complete both the Willow Wheelers’ Application and Cycling Ireland Membership . The Willow Wheelers subscription for 2018 is €35 per adult member and €35 per student member. Further details are available on the Membership page, including links to student and to adult membership application forms, both of which facilitate online payment.

You can join or renew membership on the CI website by logging onto their Join Cycling Ireland page, where you will be given the options to login and join as a new member. In the event that your email address is already on the CI system and you do not have a password, which may be the case from previous years when we provided your details to CI, we suggest you follow the CI “forgot password” process. If you have any queries about CI membership, you can request assistance from Cycling Ireland or log a query on our Willow Wheelers website contact page and we will do our best to assist you.

Cycling safety

Cyclists are responsible for their own safety and are required to comply with the rules of the road. All cyclists must wear a helmet, and should wear cycling gloves to prevent cuts and bruises in case of a tumble. We also recommend cycling glasses to protect your eyes. When the weather is sunny, sun cream is also essential. Ideally, each cyclist should have a mobile telephone and all contact numbers with the group leaders. More detail is provided on our Safe Group Cycling page.

Safe use of photography

If any member wishes to have any of the photos or video on this website removed, please contact us using the query facility on the Contact page.
